Joke told by Peter Jennings, on last night, attributed as "typical Russian Humor":
昨晚，彼德·金宁斯给我们讲了一个典型的俄国式幽默故事:
Two Russians are standing in a very long line for vodka. The first one says, "This line is too long! We must always wait for everything! I am going to go to the Kremlin and shoot Gorbachev!”
两个俄国人正在排队买伏特加酒。一个人说:“这队太长了!我们为什么做什么事情都要等呢?我现在就去克里姆林宫枪毙戈尔巴乔夫!”
After about an hour, he returns.
一个小时之后，他回来了。
The second Russian asks him, "Well，did you shoot him!”
另一个俄国人问他:“你射中他了吗?”
"No, the line was too long!”
“没有，队伍太长了!”
